I am about to reveal the best fat burning workout routines and you will probably be surprised because you either never heard of them or never considered them.
Because it takes 3,500 calories to burn a single pound of fat, this is quite an effort considering that, on an average day, the average person only burns 2,000 calories. Now, a lot of people swear by running or doing other cardio exercises. But, even if you run a few miles you will only burn a few hundred calories. This is not nearly enough to burn that single pound of fat.
So, what are you going to do? Start lifting weights. That is right. Even though you can burn more calories by running for a half hour than by lifting weights, by lifting weights you will build muscle and the more muscle your body has the harder it must work so that it is burning more fat throughout the day.
But the types of exercises you do are very important. You want to do what are called compound or multi joint exercises that work your entire body and not just single muscles. These are workouts like the clean and jerk, dead lifts, squats, bench press and others. These exercises cause your body to exert such effort that you actually go into a state of metabolic shock so that you are burning fat at a higher rate a day well after the workout.
To add to the fat burning effects you can use kettle bells which are like a cannonball with a handle on them. Studies have shown that you can burn as much as 20 calories a minute with these. Now, here is the kicker. Because of the kettlebells design it is ideal to be used in a high intensity interval training environment. HIIT is simply moving from one exercise to another with only a brief period of rest in between. HIIT workouts may last anywhere from only 10 to 20 minutes but you will get significantly more benefit that if you had wandered off into nowhere on the treadmill for an hours.
So here is a typical weekly routine:
Day 1: pull ups, dips, renegade rows, clean and press, military press
Day 2: halos, figure 8s, 1 handed swings, squats, dead lift
Day 3: chin ups, dips, renegade rows, clean and press, swing snatch, bent over rows
Day 4: halos, figure 8s, 1 handed swings, squats, dead lift
Try to do each cycle as many times as you can. It looks easy but it is a killer. If you do this you can lose as much as 1% of body fat a week!
